What if the Punks actually lived up to their name? Hmm..Something tells me that facial piercings and violence doesn't go together if you know where im getting at.

yeah I see what your saying.  Well my guess is that maybe walter hill didn't live up to the image of "Punk", because it would perhaps be a stereotype to have the image of "punk", be bad.  Sometimes I think Hill, knew that the style of "punk rock", was mre of a evolution to the generation gap, and idn't want to make it appear bad, so he just gave the punks, overalls, and striped shirts.  That or they probably ran out of money to give individual punk styles, like they did with the furies.
Yeah the woman in the picture does look dangerous, its always the quiet ones lol.

And one more thing,don't forget that the 'real' punk-rockers are mostly non-violent,so it would be quite strange watching them fighting in the subway!

When I think of the Punks, this how I picture them and not with overalls, nonetheless I prefer them the way they came out in the movie.

hmm..I didn't know Punkrockers were nonviolent. If that is the case what if Walter hill didn't stereotype that Punkers were nonviolent but a gang of Punkrockers would beat the crap out of someone.

Excellent film, if you haven't seen it.
Oh yeah this is an excellent film.

Hmm...The Rejected? Must see what its about...I agree Punks are non-violent people; piercings and violence definitely doesn't go together...they dress differently but its a cool way of pulling away from the norm of society...a woman like that must believe they're going to do something wrong because of the way they dress...that is the typical thinking of society!!! Being different is always weird to the typical people!

Its true that the Punks went Punk but the real punk not the style/movement punk...Punk also means "a young ruffian; hoodlum; an inexperienced youth"...I believe that Walter Hill gave them that name because he knew they were wimps all along...but of course he couldn't give them the name "The Wimps" so instead gave them a similar name...they might look tough but deep down inside they were scared just like the Orphans...you see how Swan took away his blade...its like back in the day when men used swords to fight...taking a man's sword was a threat...it was overpowering the man without the sword...as if his most prized possession were taken away...and it could be that they didn't have a gang name yet after they filmed that part of the movie Walter Hill or one of his crew members decided to give them the name "the punks"... :badgrin:
